This bill proposes several updates to the Arizona Revised Statutes regarding driver license instruction permits. It removes the age requirement of "and six months" for individuals applying for a class D, G, or M instruction permit, allowing those who are at least fifteen years old to apply. Additionally, the duration of the instruction permit validity is extended from "twelve" to "eighteen" months for class D or G licenses, and from "seven" to "twelve" months for class M licenses. The bill also increases the minimum holding period for the instruction permit from "six" to "nine" months before the permittee can drive with certain conditions.

Furthermore, the bill introduces a new title, the "Juveniles Unlocking Driver Education (JUDE) Act," which will serve as a reference for the changes made. Overall, these amendments aim to streamline the process for young drivers seeking instruction permits while extending the time they can practice driving under supervision.
